Got this in email... nice read... Keep this in mind.This is for all: the recently married, the ones who have been married, the soon to get married, and the ones who are still looking. Years ago, I asked God to give me a spouse, "You don't own because you didn't ask" God said. Not only did i ask for a spouse but also explained what kind of spouse I wanted. I want a nice, tender, forgiving, passionate, honest, peaceful, generous, understanding, pleasant, arm, intelligent, humorous, attentive, compassionate and truthful spouse. I even mentioned the physical characteristics I dreamt about. As time went by, I added to the required list of my wanted spouse. One night, in my prayer, God talked to my heart: "My servant, I cannot give you what you want" I asked, "Why God?" God said, "Because I am God and I am fair. God is the truth and all I do are true and right." I asked "God, I don't understand why I cannot have what I ask from you?" God answered, "I will explain. It is not fair and right for Me to fulfill your demand because I cannot give something that is not your ownself. It is not fair to give someone who is full of love to you if sometimes you are still hostile, or to give you someone generous but sometimes you can be cruel, or someone forgiving; however, you still hide revenge; however, you are very insensitive..." He then said to me: " It is better for Me to give you someone who I know could grow to have all the qualities you are searching for, rather than to make you waste your time to find someone who already have the qualities you want. Your spouse would be bone from your bone and flesh from your flesh and you will see yourself in her and both of you will be one. Marriage is like a school. It is life-long, an eudcation. It is where you and your partner make adjustments and aim not merely to please each other, but to be better human beings and to make solid teamwork. "I do not give you a perfect partner, because you are not perfect either. I give you a partner with whom you would grow together."  |

Keeping marriage is tip top shape... growing with someone... living happily ever after... becoming a good biker... all 4 has one thing in common. Takes a lot of work.  |

"Feelings and emotions change. It dosen't mean that if you dont fell for each other anymore, the love is gone. If love were only feelings, then there is no such thing as lasting. Love can sometimes turn numb or even be boring. but no matter wat, as long as you choose and decide to still continue, it will be more beautiful. Perhaps love is just taking a rest. You just have to be patient. Because love itself is life, not all the tyme you are in for all its happiness, sometimes, you also have to give in to its bittereness. Love maturely, not idealistically..." |

I now have a change of opinion on my original post. I just found out that it is possible for God to give you the perfect mate that you are asking for AND SO MUCH MORE. He indeed is a great God. Nothing is impossible for Him!  * being a perfect mate that one could have, the growth area is to focus on being a more reinforced possitive individual that would propel you into greater heights of consciousness as a human being. that's my take on it. |

Good for you Feline, nice to hear from you again...
I have to agree with gadgets888, it takes work. I do agree with you too that God is a great God, He gives us what more than what we could imagine (e.g. trials to make us strong, a better half to inspire us and keep going, a career that will bring out the best in us in terms of management, leadership et. al.). However we need to help ourselves too, without discounting His timing...
I'm happy you are in love my friend and this time... it's for keeps... It's nice to see real testimonies on the love department...

Let me reveal myself: I am my husband's second wife; second choice, his first marriage was annulled; his first choice is my youngest sister. We've been growing together for 15 years. We have our ups and downs; we made a lot of adjustments and still adjusting; we work as a team, he cooks i clean; we ride and shop afterwards; i shout, he shouts louder; he cries when he remembers his father, i cried when we found his father. He consider me as his soulmate, could be because we were born in the same hospital, i went to same school as his mom and sister, he went to same school as my dad and my siblings; we have common friends even before we were introduced. Lots of similarities and also differences. and that's what i call Growing w/ Someone. Love you Bobby. |
